Your body communicates constantly, often sending messages you're unaware of, and by intentionally changing your posture and movements, you can transform your internal state and how others perceive you.

KEY SUITE SPOTS
• Body language affects how others perceive you before you say a word
• Posture and eye contact set the tone for all communication
• Your body can lead your mind, not just the other way around
• The "power pose" technique: stand with feet apart, shoulders back, hands on hips for 60 seconds
• Research shows power poses lower cortisol and send messages of confidence to your brain
• Show your palms when speaking to signal peace and calm
• Point with clarity to demonstrate authority
• Let gestures breathe with your voice for high-performance communication
• "He who walks with integrity walks securely." Applying physically aligned body language creates security
• Confidence doesn't always come first - sometimes movement sparks confidence
